New version 2.0.5. (tramp-methods): Remove inline encoding method parameters. The encoding is now autodetected. Also shorten the list of methods (u/m distinction gone) and rename the remaining methods to have longer, but more mnemonic, names. (tramp-login-prompt-regexp, tramp-password-prompt-regexp) (tramp-wrong-passwd-regexp): Trailing `$' not needed, regexp is matched at end of buffer anyway. (tramp-yesno-prompt-regexp): New variable, for questions where the user should say "yes" or "no". (tramp-file-name-structure-unified) (tramp-file-name-structure-separate): Allow dash in method names. (tramp-actions-before-shell): New variable, contains list of pattern/action pairs. Output sent by remote end is scanned for the patterns, then the actions are executed. (tramp-multi-actions): Like `tramp-actions-before-shell', but executed for each hop in a multi-hop connection. (tramp-last-cmd-time): New variable. If nothing has been sent to remote end for 60 seconds, look to see if the remote end is still alive. (tramp-perl-mime-encode, tramp-perl-mime-decode): Remove. It didn't work. (tramp-perl-encode, tramp-perl-decode): New variables, these require the MIME::Base64 module on the remote end. (tramp-handle-file-attributes): Restructure logic. (tramp-handle-file-attributes-with-ls) (tramp-handle-file-attributes-with-perl): More debugging. (tramp-handle-directory-files): Grok fifth arg `files-only' for XEmacs. (tramp-handle-make-directory, tramp-handle-delete-directory) (tramp-handle-delete-file, tramp-handle-insert-directory): Expand file name. (tramp-handle-shell-command): Use `when', not `if'. (tramp-handle-file-local-copy, tramp-handle-write-region): Adapt to autodetection of inline encoding. (tramp-invoke-ange-ftp): Require ange-ftp to make sure that variable ange-ftp-name-format is defined before binding it. (tramp-action-login, tramp-action-password, tramp-action-succeed) (tramp-action-permission-denied, tramp-action-yesno): Functions called from `tramp-actions-before-shell'. (tramp-multi-action-login, tramp-multi-action-password) (tramp-multi-action-succeed) (tramp-multi-action-permission-denied): Functions called from `tramp-multi-actions'. (tramp-process-one-action, tramp-process-actions): Pattern matching and action invocation code for `tramp-actions-before-shell'. (tramp-process-one-multi-action, tramp-process-multi-actions): Same for `tramp-multi-actions'. (tramp-open-connection-telnet, tramp-open-connection-rsh) (tramp-open-connection-su): Process actions instead of hardwired logic. (tramp-multi-connect-telnet, tramp-multi-connect-rlogin) (tramp-multi-connect-su): Ditto. (tramp-post-connection): New method for tramp_encode and tramp_decode scripts. (tramp-post-connection): Invoke inline autodetection code. (tramp-coding-commands): List of inline codings. (tramp-find-inline-encoding): This is the inline autodetection code. (tramp-maybe-open-connection): If nothing was sent to connection for 60 seconds, look if it connection is still alive. (tramp-send-command): Remember that something was sent to the connection. (tramp-make-tramp-file-name, tramp-make-tramp-multi-file-name): Use backticks for constructing alist. (tramp-get-encoding-command, tramp-set-encoding-command) (tramp-get-decoding-command, tramp-set-decoding-command) (tramp-get-encoding-function, tramp-set-encoding-function) (tramp-get-decoding-function, tramp-set-decoding-function): Use for results of inline autodetection. (tramp-get-encoding-command, tramp-get-decoding-command) (tramp-get-encoding-function, tramp-get-decoding-function): Remove these old functions.

Basic Installation for  An Introduction to Programming in Emacs Lisp  version 2
==================

    # To see the table of contents of the emacs-lisp-intro-2.00.tar.gz
    # file, execute the following at your shell prompt:

    tar -tzvf emacs-lisp-intro-2.00.tar.gz

    # To uncompress and untar the file, execute the following:

    tar -xzvf emacs-lisp-intro-2.00.tar.gz

    # The file will untar into a subdirectory called emacs-lisp-intro-2.00
    # That directory will contain the Texinfo source for the book, the
    # Info files and various other files.

    cd emacs-lisp-intro-2.00

    # To create a DVI file that can be printed directly or converted
    # to PostScript or PDF and then printed, execute the following:

    ./configure
    make dvi

    # To create an HTML file, execute the following 
    #   (presumably you have already executed the `./configure' command
    #    before running `make dvi'; if not execute `./configure' now);
    # this will place HTML files into a emacs-lisp-intro/ subdirectory:

    makeinfo --html --verbose emacs-lisp-intro.texi

    # To create a single, large HTML file in the current directory,
    # use the --no-split option, like this:

    makeinfo --html --no-split --verbose emacs-lisp-intro.texi

        # At the time of writing, `makeinfo' version 4.0b creates HTML
        # files with %20 in addresses instead of a space.  Some
        # browsers have difficulty following such references.  In
        # GNU Emacs, you can replace the occurrences of %20 with a
        # command such as
        #              (replace-string "%20" " ")

    # To create a single, large Info file in the current directory
    # instead of the usual 16 smaller Info files, and also, to avoid
    # indenting paragraphs, execute:

    makeinfo --no-split --paragraph-indent=0 --verbose emacs-lisp-intro.texi

    # To create a single, large Plain text file in the current
    # directory, execute:

    makeinfo --fill-column=70 --no-split --paragraph-indent=0 \
    --verbose --no-headers --output=emacs-lisp-intro.txt emacs-lisp-intro.texi
